E-mail or fax a notarized statement certifying that you are in possession of a Permanent Resident card (green card) USCIS Form I-551 to your grants management specialist with a copy to BMRA. You need to do this before your fellowship can begin. If your green card is being approved for renewal, you can submit a notarized statement certifying that you are in possession of Form 1-90, which was provided to you when you filed for your new green card. Once you have received your new green card, you must send a notarized statement certifying that you have your green card to Grants Management Specialist. Sample Letter
